BCS Conference Power Rankings

1. Big Ten: It's hard to argue with seven bowl teams and two BCS appearances. While Purdue and Michigan State bombed and Michigan failed to meet expectations with four losses, Penn State and Ohio State were two of the best teams in the nation and Wisconsin and Northwestern were pleasant surprises.

2. SEC: There wasn't much offense to speak of in the SEC, but no conference in the country can compare with the conference's defensive talent. Tennessee's demise took away from impressive seasons by Georgia, LSU, Auburn, Alabama and South Carolina.

3. Pac-10: USC sets the standard, and Oregon and UCLA exceeded expectations, but the drop off after that is considerable. Disappointments from Cal and Arizona State hurt most.

4. ACC: Not as strong at the top, but its depth is impressive. Virginia Tech, Miami and Florida State are the cream of the crop. Georgia Tech, Boston College, Clemson, N.C. State, Virginia, North Carolina and Maryland are all competitive.

5. Big 12: The Big 12 is down despite Texas' run to the Rose Bowl. The North is a joke and Oklahoma's rebuilding year didn't help, either.

6. Big East: If it weren't for West Virginia, the Mountain West would have an argument for the nation's sixth-best conference.

If it weren't for TCU, the Mountain West would have an argument for the nation's worst conference.

Guess they've never heard of L'ville, top 20?  MWC doesn't even have another team in the top 25 besides TCU (whom I might add is not that good).

I think ESPN is still homering on what Utah did to the Champ last year.

  • Quotes

    "There is no inherent fear among this group of players. The fear of failing drove the program from day one - the fear of failing the coaches, the fan base, the university, each teammate, themselves. Now, as we head into the biggest game in our history at home on a national stage against the highest ranked team to step on OUR field, the players are taking an introspective look at themselves. Unfortunately, I don't know if they get it. They lack the fear."

    Terry Lucas, 09/26/22
